    Several people have asked me what I thought about trucks not delivering out that way. Out side of the verdict I have no idea whats going on. With out this getting messy can a few of you fill me in. Heres one story my mothers friend told her.
    She said when her son went to deliver. Trucks where lined up along the on ramp. When he got to the light he was approached by a couple drivers that told him to do the right thing and turn around or give them his keys because no one is getting past here.
    This is not the whole story. But rather the jist of it.

    I doubt that someone is being told they can't continue down the road by anyone other than law enforcement, & I seriously doubt that a person is being told to give their keys up because they're not getting past a certain point by anyone other than law enforcement.

    I know they are lined up blocking stuff not sure why they aren’t being towed.

    Sounds like a few clowns are trying to have a little protest. Most of all it seems they don't like getting paid, and will sit, pout, and complain, all because of some guy they didn't even know.
    Murder people, go to jail.

    Not a difficult concept for most, but some think that he should have been given a hand slap then released.
    Let them sit and pout, they are only hurting themselves, wasting their time, and not making a dime.
    If the guy is worried about it, take a different route.
    Tell him to not be one of the clowns caught up in the pitty party.

    Ps. Runaway lanes are there to be used if someone screws up on maintenance and their brakes don't work properly, or they overheat them by dragging them for 3 miles to keep slowed down, till they no longer work.
    Killer boy drove right past a couple of runaway lanes, choosing not to use them, before murdering innocent people, so don't feel sorry for him.
    Any reasonable, rational person, would have taken better care of his truck, and if it still failed, would happily take the runaway lanes.

    I'm so over this Colorado clown already, besides, it's just a matter of time before the next idiot steps up to the plate.
